I then deleted the 1001MB partition, and plan to just leave it as unallocated space. I then created my new partition after that, and it also was able to partition successfully. I deleted the 2 partitions again, and I created a 1001MB partition, and was able to format it NTFS. It DID successfully format the second 250 of the original partition. I tried breaking the unallocated space into 2 partitions, and it still wouldn't format the first 250GB partition. This is when I got the error mentioned in this thread. I used a file recovery utility to recover my files, and attempted to repartition and format the lost partition. I removed the drive from the computer, and put it into an External Net Drive, and the second partition was there, and in perfect working order, the main partition where Vista was installed was in Raw format.
The main partition on the drive did not exist anymore. On reboot, it appeared as if the Master Boot Record had been deleted. I started up Vista Ultimate x32, and after logging in, the system seemed to crash. The drive is a Western Digital WD1001FALS 1TB Sata Drive. While I think I have worked around the problem, I wanted to get some feedback about what happened, and if I need further action.
